It’s official, GZBz: CL has a new home. On November 13, THEBLACKLABEL announced that CL has signed an exclusive contract with the agency, the done deal that follows the talks we covered on October 28.
THEBLACKLABEL’s statement
CL is starting a new journey with THEBLACKLABEL based on the foundation of deep trust she has built with producer Teddy over many years of working together on music, marking a new leap forward for her as an artist.
Additionally, she is aiming to release a new song in November and is currently preparing to meet her fans all over the world.
A reunion years in the making
CL debuted with 2NE1 under YG Entertainment in 2009. She left YG in 2019 and set up her own agency, Very Cherry, to keep making music on her own terms.
Back at YG, she worked closely with Teddy, who is now THEBLACKLABEL’s founder and took part in the production of many 2NE1 hits, so this signing brings the two back under one roof. At THEBLACKLABEL she joins fellow YG alumni Taeyang of BIGBANG and Rosé of BLACKPINK, along with Jeon Somi, MEOVV and ALLDAY PROJECT.
The new song doesn’t have a title or a date yet, just the November goal, so we’ll be watching for the first teasers. In the meantime, the Watch section below has CL’s ‘Tie a Cherry’ music video.
